i got a traffic peeve, too -- there are only 2-lane highways on my island. sometimes i get behind someone, usually an elder, going 10 miles under the speed limit; this is tolerable, as i'm not often in a hurry. but, when, upon noticing me behind them, they slow down even more, and begin riding the non-existent shoulder in an attempt to make me pass, on a double yellow line (usually a blind curve), i just wanna get out and slap the stupid outta them!

I think I understood your post, but just to be clear, do you mean the road has only one lane in each direction? If so, I think you are legally entitled to ram the person off the road, spy hunter style. You must hum the video game tune while doing it.
 
after spending a week in the sticks of new mexico, everything here seems really fucking loud. it makes me want to stab out my eardrums. and light pollution here is godawful. what happened to the stars? i see venus, i see orion, and i see the moon. that's it. fuck this. i need to move.
 
turoids, the ones that do not know how to drive, can not reverse and think they own the road.
got one back, came face to face with another fucking turoid, I actually got out the car and measured the 4 foot from her car to reverse back to the passing place, then measured my distance to go, 42 feet. She still did not move so I I went to the boot got out a carton of juice a biscuit and my newspaper and started to read it only took 11 minutes for her to give up and reverse what is wrong with these people????
 
^turoid? Is this an amalgamation of a Tourist & Haemorrhoid?

It's the humming of the tune that makes it legal. Fact.
 
^^^ what us hicks call people from towns who come up here and annoy us whilst at the same time taking their money and blatantly being hypocritical whilst smiling and hope they enjoy their stay lol.
yes half tourist, half pain in the backside.:)
 
when patients do not show up for appointments then demand to be seen on another day
so sorry you could not keep your last appointment please go eff yourself
 
Continuing with my ten part series:

6) People who merge onto a highway at 25 MPH, then slowly meander into the middle lane, straddling both lanes in the process.

WHAT the fuck is wrong with you? Do you not notice the other cars going highway speed? Why is this a difficult thing to understand? And if you are so goddamn slow, why are you in such a hurry to get into the middle lane? Stay in the right lane where you belong!! :X:X
 
Self-scanners at the grocery store should be equipped with some type of sensor that can pick up on when someone approaches it with a shopping cart completely full of groceries, and then a boxing glove on a spring should pop out and hit them in the face. If it's between around 4:30 - 6:30pm when there's 500 other people buying food it should punch them twice. Seriously, what is with people? I'm not talking about people getting 10 or 12 items, I'm talking about people who have enough shit that they could go hibernate for 3 months, and they decide to use self check-out.
 
my several religious family members' tendencies to begin sentences with "God wants...", "God loves...", "God hates...", and so on. supremely arrogant AND colossally erroneous. this is irritating more than normally today.

when people don't empty the lint trap after using a dryer

There are at least four camps in this lint filter issue. People who check it before, who check it after, the bastards that think the lint will somehow dissipate on its own, and the people who end up checking before and after. It is written that in the final days people of every camp on the lint issue will rise up against each other. ;) I'm a before and after because of the lack of standards on the issue. If it were a room mate instead of an unknown person in one's building that was a believer in magical dissipation one could leave their lint in room mate's cereal, under their pillow, in their shoes, etc until they discard the dissipation theory. If it is just the before/after dichotomy and a just few people are involved the owner or rules committee can standardize. I'm opposed to mixed marriages though between before lint cleaners and after lint cleaners because I think it leaves kids confused and not feeling totally accepted by either group ;)

Yeah, I do the before and after. I don't care. I figure the extra work I do cleaning the lint makes up for the anguish I cause others in life with my insanity and OCPD.
 
Continuing with my ten part series:

5) People who slow down and"yield" at a yield sign that branches off from a lane of traffic that has a green light.

Are they retarded? Who the hell are they yielding to? Our direction has a GREEN LIGHT! It isn't possible for there to be a car that we need to yield to as we veer off to the right. Seriously, how fucking stupid are people? :!:!

I'm a before and after checker too. It's a pleasant surprise when I don't have to empty it before hand cause I usually end up picking the dryers of those that don't give a fuck about lint traps, don't know they exist, or are just too damn lazy.

After I made that last post I checked with my boyfriend to see how he deals with lint traps and he said, "I empty them, I'm not an asshole." :D <3

Wow. I am so distracted by this video game of a football game on TV that I thought your last sentence said "I ENJOY them" instead of "I EMPTY them," and I was about to post:

Don't take this the wrong way but your boyfriend is weird :\

Anyway, I suppose I should post an actual pet peeve, so:

It peeves me in the bar dating scene when a person gives m,e a real phone number but then

A) Blows me off the next time I actually use it, or
B) didn't even to bother saving mine and responds with "Who is this?

Feel free to insert some sort of "FJones can't get women" joke here, but I don't acre about that .... if my talking to a woman at a bar is unwanted, she can just switch two digits and give a fake number....... or politely decline. or say "I have a boyfriend......

And besides, some of them chatted in an animated and interested manner for a while.

So yeah, I don't quite get how the scene works.

I have to post another pet peeve. The MNF announcers are so annoying. Why do they refer to "Monday Night Football" records? Who cares? I want to know the records for ANY NFL game so I know what to root for in this insane video game of a football game that is on now.
 
I'm not sure how this will translate into better success for you with connecting with women but it may have some bearing.

I'm old, out of shape, and of a generally rude temperament. I have many women in my real life and my online life that dig me. I engage their minds or their hearts their vaginas are a desert I don't have room for.

I'm not giving the main thing that may help, yet. Indifference, sangfroid, being cool, its all the same thing. Really wanting it makes it less attainable. I'm sure you could get gay guys with out even trying precisely because you are not even trying. If you wanted them they would scatter. I've started my thing with a pre-supposition that they sensed you wanted them and that they want someone who cares less than they do so that the man can steer the drama a bit before the woman ultimately conquers. Probably, I'm just imagining :)

Phone numbers are for future concerns. Casual sex involves getting you to their place or them to yours. Are you looking for casual sex or for a relationship. My opinion, relationships are unlikely in bars. Look at clubs in the sense of: volunteering, church, mensa, fraternal order of elks, what have you. Bar connections can be other than sex but its almost heading towards lottery odds.
